Debloat any Android or Google TV over Wi-Fi and get an Apple TV-style home.
CleanYourTV is an open-source tool that debloats Android TV and Google TV devices over Wi-Fi using ADB, disabling manufacturer ads and telemetry without root, and installs a clean Apple TV-style launcher. It works by pasting a provided prompt into an AI coding assistant (like Claude Code) that walks through backing up, disabling bloatware, and installing the launcher — all fully reversible with a restore script.
Why now: It went viral after the author tweeted about vibe-coding the fix for his parents' ad-filled Mi TV in one afternoon; the repo has rapidly gained stars and was renamed from tv-vibehack, riding interest in AI-assisted tooling and smart-TV ad removal.
Who it is for: Owners of Android/Google TV devices (Sony, TCL, Hisense, Xiaomi, Nvidia Shield, etc.) who want to remove ads and bloatware from their TV's home screen without technical rooting.
